Fair enough. He was in his 3rd year in 2010 though. Fitness staff were obviously doing wonders as usual. They were also fantastic for Kosi and Bally.

Steven and Armitage were starring at Sandy late 2010.... I think Geary got 40 in a game also, coming back from an injury suffered in the seniors? Perhaps that was 09

We made a couple of selection errors IMO

Colless is a dick, quite literally. Boo hooing about the loss of Shannon Grant, Rocca, etc, etc over the loss of entitlements, but gleefully skips over the fact that they negated these losses by using their cash to buy stars from other clubs! Sour grapes.

Seems Colless suggests the Saints stuffed up their contract negotiation with Lyon is the reason he really left! The Saints did offer him a 3 year deal but with an out clause after 6 months which was the reason he left, not for money which they would have us believe. What a cluster of a football club we follow...The best football coach the club had had in 50 years and the Saints management let him go.
There's nothing new about this "news" from Colless.

We stuffed up. We have Richo now and we have to move on.

Starring?

Didn't Armo hurt his knee twice in the second half of the season?

I was there for both of them. Heard him scream. Rainy day. How many weeks did he miss?

One at Vic park - the other at Sandy if I recall.

Could be wrong but don't think I am. Hard to star when out injured. Unless just distorting the truth as usual.

If Colless with two flags is a dick, what do you call Westeway?

dickless?
